Heavenly Fire World, Great Palace Master

"Smack!"

Li Weiyi stared at her departing figure, then slapped his forehead hard, finally understanding why Qing Ziqin harbored such deep prejudice against him.

So, something happened on her very first day at Yan Jue Mountain! That makes sense, she was already Saint Mind Master at that time.

It's so embarrassing, I've been embarrassed for months.

Li Weiyi could easily imagine what she was thinking every time he talked to her.

Back at the Qingyin Pavilion, Li Weiyi fed the three Thousand-Year Elixir, aged four thousand, five thousand, and six thousand years respectively, to the Three Phoenixes, Five Phoenix, and seventh phoenixes.

There's no way around it; high-grade medicinal herbs are all incredibly valuable, so we can only prioritize cultivating those with greater potential.

The Three Phoenixes can breathe Golden Crow Flame, Five Phoenix has a talent for speed. The Seventh Phoenix can shrink and become invisible, allowing her to ambush powerful enemies. Li Weiyi's most capable general besides the Great Phoenix and Second Phoenix.

The "Bing Po Jue" is not some profound Daoist art; it is simply a method for protecting the soul.

After practicing for half a day, Li Weiyi had a basic grasp of it.

"Yu'er, put on this armor!"

Li Weiyi placed a Dragon Scale Bracelet on her slender wrist, and immediately, black scales spread out, covering Yu'er's entire body.

He then donned the Provincial Governor's Official Robe.

"Master, what are we doing?"

Yu'er touched the armor with her fingers and felt that the scales were very cold.

"Go to a place we should have gone to a long time ago... the ghosts in the Blood Mud Space. Master has already suppressed them. You go in and hide for a while. We'll let you out in a little while."

Li Weiyi put Yu'er into the Dao Ancestor Taiji Fish, and then strode towards the mountaintop.

Upon arriving at the Mind Master Guard recruit camp halfway up the mountain, he had previously visited the two instructors, Yuan Jingsan and Xue Yan, both to inform them that he was about to enter the Fire Abyss for cultivation and to subtly inquire whether there were any other Nian Shi in the Fire Abyss.

"Don't stand there, everyone here is Saint Mind Master."

Yuan Jingsan pulled Li Weiyi to sit down. "There must be older generation spirit sentinels cultivating in the Heavenly Fire World. But they've gone to a deeper level, so they won't be affected by each other."

Xue Yan's attitude towards Li Weiyi was much more polite than before. "Having just broken through to become Saint Mind Master, Tian Chong Soul is still very weak. He should cultivate within a few miles of the Abyss Pass. If he encounters danger, he can evacuate in time."

Yuan Jingsan smiled and said, "The Heavenly Fire World is vast, and its legends are boundless. There are indeed some external dangers, such as Flame Storm. However, it only happens once every many years, so there's no need to worry about it too much."

"Thank you both for the reminder."

After Li Weiyi took his leave...

Yuan Jingsan looked at the beautiful woman Xue Yan beside him. "Do you think he can stay in the Fire Abyss longer than Nangong?"

"Qing Ziqin spent twenty-eight days condensing the eleventh Psychic Power Stars. Nangong spent thirty-four days, and it's said that he has recently condensed the twelfth Psychic Power Stars. He... I don't understand!" Xue Yan said.

Yuan Jingsan picked up his teacup and laughed, "Anyway, they're all incredibly powerful, much stronger than we were back then! I only stayed for fourteen days, and I was quite arrogant then, but now I wouldn't dare mention it in front of them. Haha!"

"If it weren't for the martial arts side recruiting Tang Wanzhou and Chang Yujian, our Mind Master Guard would definitely have overshadowed them," Xue Yan said.

Taishi Yu was in seclusion, focusing his mind, and Li Weiyi did not disturb him, heading straight for the mountaintop.

The Fire Abyss is a crimson spatial rift hundreds of feet long, like a piece of paper being torn open to reveal another world.

A Heavenly Fire World, completely different from Yingzhou, containing only flames and no other matter.

Standing atop the mountain, Li Weiyi felt the scorching heat on his skin and thought to himself, "Other mentalists must use magical energy robes to protect themselves and wrap themselves in spiritual light to resist the heavenly fire. But with my strong physical body and magical energy around me, I'm definitely stronger than them."

"Whoosh!"

Li Weiyi leaped into the air, then his back sprouted wings of spiritual light, and he flew into the Abyss of Fire.

Other abysses all descend to the earth's depths.

The Fire Abyss, however, stretches straight into the deep sky.

Upon entering the Fire Abyss, heavenly fire swept over them. Li Weiyi did not activate his Provincial Governor's Official Robe, but instead used his physical body to sense the temperature of the flames.

It's alright, we can hold on for now.

But it hurts!

The clothing inside the Provincial Governor's Official Robe burst into flames and instantly turned to ashes.

Li Weiyi did not confront it head-on. Instead, he activated the defensive power of the Provincial Governor's Official Robe to protect his body, and then looked down. The spatial rift, hundreds of feet long, was like the entrance to an abyss, leading to Yan Jue Mountain, from which one could look down at the camp of the Mind Master Guard recruits.

Above their heads, the deeper they went, the darker the flames became, gradually turning black.

It was pitch black and deep, like a desolate wasteland.

Within a few miles of the entrance to the Fire Abyss, there are floating jade platforms crafted by the senior experts of the Dongxu Camp.

The jade platform, three feet square, is suspended by an array.

Li Weiyi flew six or seven miles on light and landed on a jade platform on the edge of the area. He opened his Heavenly Eye, looked around, and then activated the Dao Ancestor Taiji Fish.

"Whoosh!"

Ripples spread through the space amidst the flames.

He brought out Yu'er, who was wearing black dragon scale armor, along with Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors.

Li Weiyi cautiously observed, lest he be discovered by other sentry spirits cultivating in the Heavenly Fire World, and whispered, "Yu'er, how are you feeling? Yu... Great... Great Palace Master..."

The moment Li Weiyi turned around and looked down at Yu'er beside him, he sensed something was wrong. He held his breath and his body stiffened.

Although she was still a little girl, her snow-white oval face still had a touch of childishness, but her eyes... were not as clear as before, but were full of depth, scrutiny, and sharpness, as if she were looking down on the whole world.

The headband burned and the headdress melted, causing long hair to fall loose.

She lowered her eyes and glanced at Li Weiyi's hand, which was gripping her wrist.

Li Weiyi quickly loosened her grip.

Yu Yaozi stepped out of the narrow jade platform, Kongxu, walking step by step through the flames. There was no magical energy beneath her feet, but strands of spiritual light supported her.

"The entrance to the Heavenly Fire World at Dongxu Camp?"

Her tone was calm and detached, devoid of any emotion.

Li Weiyi struggled to maintain her master's composure and demeanor despite her intimidating aura. "Yes!"

"You may cultivate here."

With those words, Yu Yaozi transformed into a wisp of flame, soaring into the depths of the Heavenly Fire World. In an instant, her aura and figure vanished without a trace, leaving no trace.

Li Weiyi let out a long breath. The overwhelming aura of her top-notch superiority was simply terrifying. Liu Tianchen's clone was no match for her at all.

"As expected, upon entering the Heavenly Fire World, the Great Palace Master's consciousness automatically awakened."

"Thank goodness! Although she was a bit cold and imposing, she seemed to know who I was and should still retain Yu'er's memories... I can't let her cook or wash dishes anymore! Uh, there probably won't be a next time!"

Li Weiyi pondered to himself, what kind of drastic changes would Yu Yaozi bring to Lingxiao Shengjing and the East Sea once she refined the cursed monster within her and restored her cultivation strength?

For him, this should be a good thing no matter how you look at it.

Li Weiyi stopped thinking about it and sat down to meditate.

First, he used the <Bing Po Jue> to protect Tian Chong Soul. Then, the Fusang Divine Tree Spirit God condensed in the spirit realm. As his meditation deepened, wisps of heavenly fire gathered towards his brow.

"Splash!"

Within the hundred-zhang spiritual realm between the eyebrows, the main flames are red, crimson, and white, while the azure starlight remains only wisps of mist.

Heavenly fire surged into the spirit realm.

Li Weiyi discovered that it actually had no color and could not exist independently; it had to be integrated into the spiritual light of the chant master.

The spiritual light of a mind master, after absorbing celestial fire, also contains the soul-burning power of celestial fire. It can be used to deal with cursed monsters and ghosts, as well as to attack the souls of various living beings and the deceased.

Besides, it is extremely difficult to take the Heavenly Fire away from the Heavenly Fire World; once it is taken out, it will be extinguished.

"It's alright, for now there are no signs that Tian Chong Soul has been burned."

After adapting to the environment of the Heavenly Fire World, Li Weiyi began to multitask. Within his body, he mobilized his magical energy to attack the Universe Lock on his back.

His Universe Lock was extremely tough and robust, the iron lock seemingly piercing through heaven and earth. Despite being impacted in the Sea of Souls for several days, it remained almost unchanged.

Li Weiyi was confident that he wouldn't be trapped and die below the Longevity Realm like Zhu Seventy-two Heavens. His Seven-Clawed Heavenly Dragon Qi was far more vigorous and powerful than the magical energy of other martial cultivators, giving him a huge advantage.

At the same time, it can also mobilize the liquid magic power and Immortal Mist Pure Radiance Shenque to impact.

Five days later, Li Weiyi focused on three things at once, taking out classics such as the "Book of the Earth," the Swastika Stone Wall, and the "Eight Trigrams Upper Profound Scripture" to study and comprehend.

The Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors were also absorbing the heavenly fire.

But apart from the Three Phoenixes, the other six simply breathed flames as if they were breathing air.

Twenty days later, the hundred-zhang spiritual realm between his eyebrows was filled with a sea of spiritual light and boiling flames, which rapidly condensed in the vortex.

Li Weiyi still had a small amount of Spirit Platform Blazing Star Stone on her body. But she didn't use them this time. Instead, she used her own power to condense Psychic Power Stars.

It took two days to condense the eleventh Psychic Power Stars.

As time passed, when hungry, he would swallow Blood Valley Pill. When his magical energy was severely depleted, he would absorb it from the Blood Crystals.

Li Weiyi was completely immersed in the fulfilling feeling of rapidly improving his cultivation level through absorbing the Heavenly Fire and comprehending the classics.

Until one day, two months later.

"Flame Storm has erupted in the Heavenly Fire World! Evacuate immediately!"

An elder Sentinel from the Sentinel Spirit Army flew down from the sky, glanced at Li Weiyi from afar, sent a telepathic reminder, and then swiftly headed towards the exit of the Fire Abyss.

"Flame Storm? I actually ran into this?"

Li Weiyi glanced upwards and saw flames surging, like a crimson tide rushing downwards. He immediately gathered his various scriptures, stepped into the void, and quickly retreated.

As for Yu Yaozi...

Why should he worry?

Li Weiyi had just retreated to the exit of the Fire Abyss.

Above, a young girl's figure descended, accompanied by a vast and magnificent Flame Storm.

Her long hair shone like a brilliant burning light, and she wore black dragon scale armor that accentuated her graceful figure, creating a striking contrast between her curvaceous body and her porcelain-like skin.

He already looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, having completely shed his childishness.

"Take me to see the Commander of the Dongxu Camp. I want to have a talk with him."
